Plenty of ink has been spilled about the best draft picks made by the Boston Celtics, and more than a few Monday morning quarterbacks have dissected the selections made by a given Celtics GM over the decades. Our task here is to make a case for the latter, but also doing it while avoiding the usual use of hindsight that tends to use contemporary knowledge of how the players who were drafted later turned out.

Another criterion is that we are only focusing on players taken in the modern lottery range of picks 1 through 14; it’s rare to find high-value players outside that range.
